Hosteria San Jorge

The Hosteria San Jorge also is billed as the San Jorge Ecolodge and Botanical Reserve, with good reason. The former residence of an Ecuadorian President, it is an oasis of grassy fields, secondary forests, exotic plantings and hummingbirds situated on the flank of the dormant Rucu Pinincha volcano and overlooking the northern half of Quito.
